Ti xas, anil was writ ten by Garfield Crawford, formerly of Heppner. The young man mentioned is L. R. McBee who has a ranch at Cecil. l To pay 15 per ae ro for .1 d'soarded and wornout stock ranch was consid ered a vry foolish investment by the wise heads of a community. However this was done and the purchaser Is to day Independent and has a snug bank account. When the young man purchased the 16.000 acre ranch consisting of sage brush and sand hills, with about 100 acres of It on the bottom to be converted into a meadbw, the question of how he expected to ever pay out was considered by all of his neighbors It wa. thoroughly discussed and in the majority of cases the decision was rendered, "Can't never do It." The young man paid no attention to the neighbors or those who sought to give him advice 'that he was going it a litle strung." but went to work to carry out the ideas that he had In mind. A creek runs through this ranch and the first move on the part of the young farmer was to repair an old Irrigation d.tch. fix up the dam and to get water out on a small patch of alfalfa that had been planted several years before. This alfalfa had been own on the ground and harrowed In and left to do the best it could. If it grew, all good and well; of not, It made no particular difference to the former owner. He had a email acreage cleared off below the house upon which a little bunch of wheat hay could be raised to pull the cattle, through the winter Alfalfa was not the best hay, anyway, was the con nen bus of opinion by cattlemen in those days. But the newcomer thought differently and after getting water onto the growing alfalfa he started a crew of men to work grub bing sagebrush, following up with AFTER or any severe sicKness to IS BY FAR THE BEST STRENGTHENING TONIC Ve will supply h to any one with the understanding that if it does not do what we claim we will refund the money paid us for it THE PENDLETON DRUG CO., Pendleton.

The main ditch was enlarged so as to carry more water from the creek. Small laterals vi re put in on the new land and that fall tbout eighty acres of wild land was In shape to be planted. This system was followed out from year to year until the entire 300 acres of bottom land had been converted in to .an alfalfa field. It was a little more than ten yeans ago that this young farmer settled n Willow creek in Oregon. Today he is free from debt, goes and comes when so desires and has all the lux- urles of life. But these luxuries did not come Immediately upon the hee.'s of the completion of the work of establishing an alfalfa.farm. There , was much work to follow to make this t farm an institution of permanency. , There must be some way to dispose ' of his crop so as to derive the highest income. At that time there was , not enough to create a direct market and he could not afford to take the 1 chances of shipping It to Portland, j Seattle or Spokane markets, as hlR supply was limited, and for that rea- ' son he would have to take whatever the brokers saw fit to give him. His way out was the beet way. The banks were lending money In the fall of the year o'n cattle and sheep security. He went to the bank ! and went back Into the interior of ; the state and bought cattle Just off the'summer range. These cattle were j driven out to his ranch and there fed on alfalfa for sixty and ninety days. They were topped off on alfalfa and ! then loaded oboard cars and placed ! on the Portland stock market. In this 1 way he was able to sell his hay at & figure from $16 to J20 per ton. He j followed the market closely and al- ; ways made an effort to have his cat tle on the market at at time when they would command the top price. Obstacles presented themselves, but these he met In a fearless manner. In the late sumer the creek went dry GRIPPE SALE Choice of Any Man's or Overcoat on our counters Values up to $30. 00 plain and embroideried- $2.25 to $4 Pays to Trade and In the e.-uly .spring it "would overflow, doing much darrftige to h s fields These adversities must le contrniled. Brush along the creek hank caught floating debris . which formed dams, causing the overflows. This was leaped away and in many instances the channel was enlarged a n.l straightened. These improvements gave him more land and did away with the overflow damage under or 1 nary circumstances, but the water for his third crop was not to be had. lie fell upon the idea. "Why not irri gate when the water is plentiful?" 'nil sat about to regulate his affairs to that condition. In the early sum mer water was plentiful and at that time he proceeded to soak up the land in a through manner. He didn't allow the water to stand on the field any length of time, hut kept steady at his work of irrigating. The Idea pro ved a success and is now being fol lowed by hundreds of farmers in that territory. As soon as the weather permits In the" spring, springtootli harrows are run over the fields, thus stlrrng up the plant and soil, forming a loose dust mulch on the surface which is to conserve the moisture In the late sum mer. Manure spreaders are put In use and the dumpings from the barns and food racks are consumed to restore and enrich the soil. He adapted r a system and followed It. His neighbors raise alfalfa, 'in fact every rancher on Willow creek, which is more than sixty miles long and farmed from the 'head to the mouth, raise this great forage plant. Some of them feed It to sheep, some to cattle and a great many bale and ship. An nlfalfa meal mill has been established on this ranch and the demand for al falfa today is far greater than it was ten years ago.

I William Wolff Smith. Correspondent. Washington, D. C.) Washington, II. C. Information reaches Washington that the Ttemscn Board Is prepnring to report that sulphur is a harmless preservative for dried fruits. Its conclusions will be based on a series of experiments sim ilar to those it conducted with ben zoate of soda. Students, carefully se lected because of their healthfulness I have been fed on sulphured fruit, to gether with many other things. They have gained In weight; ergo sulphur fruit is the real stuff for students. This question is of great importance to California because of Its large dried I fruit Industry and Prof. Alonzo E. Taylor, of the University of Califor nia, a member of the Remsen Board, has this matter in charge. The favorable attitude of the Rem sen Board toward sulphur, following it. famous findings on benzoate of so da, predicates similar favorable find ings In behalf of saccharine, cop peras and alum. It takes some time for the board to make its experiments and tabulate the results, which work is compensated for at the rate of $2C per day per member engaged. Consequently decisions in these matters are not expected very soon, hut as the methods employed are the same as in the bonzonte case, and the. interests concerned are similar, the results can be accurately predicted, Cnls the Remsen board Is to pro duce favorable results for artificial i preservatives, etc., there Is no excuse j for its existence. Congress enacted in pure-food law and acting under it i.iil sorts of preservatives and iidul- t. rants were prohibited. These in. j lii'iilions eajne from the highest con- ; i -titut'-d authority under the law; and ! to secure a reversal of this adverse 1 j;ttitiii!e it was necessary to create iin i i extra legal body, never contemplated! , tiv congress, which took form in the .

Dice Thrown For Charity London. The quaint ceremony of throwing the dice for John How's charity, or "the maid's money," at Guildford has Just been performed when two servants obtained the same total of ten on the first throw. On the second throw, however, Ellen Reeve threw a double six, making a total of twelve, and she was then presented with a cheque for 11 pounds 19s. Other ancient charities were also presented at the meeting. The government of Chile, South America, has adopted as the standard time of the country that of the seventy-fifth meridian west of Green wich, the same as Eastern time In North America. UTanu man la Txrnt.A nt hl nwt When thousands of women say that they have bee cured of their ailments by a certain remedy, does this not prove the merit of that remedy ? .
